He has written some good stories and he has written some real stinkers. Overall I am glad he is still writing and wish him well. Happy Birthday Mr. King. You owe me for "Cell" though. That was pure stink.

I am not easily scared. One of my weaknesses? Cockroaches. So I curse and praise King and George Romero for that godamned story in Creepshow. The ONLY movie where I have to try really hard to not cover my eyes.

Duma Key is definitely my favorite of his most recent books. I don't think it gets enough love. Take away the supernatural stuff and it's still a great story about a broken (both physically and emotionally) man and his attempt to start a new life.
